What would you do after you shoot 55? "If you are Rhein Gibson, you go home and mow the lawn." Lowest 18-hole round in golf history? Link: Golf Pigeon

Are ball-flight-monitoring technologies such as Trackman & FlightScope susceptible to major improvements? (i.e., becoming a lot smaller & lighter) For example, might they one day be incorporated into handheld devices or golf bags for easy range access and/or in-game use? (Perhaps this is the...

I need a golf course recommendation ... Gulf Shores, Alabama. I've never been. Please take into consideration that I'm a poor person. Having said that, know any good beachfront hotels? (family is picking up the tab on the hotel) Thanks for your help.

Can someone give me a putting lesson? I shot 92 (52-40) at Augusta National yesterday, and I'm not very happy about it. Who 7-putts? I'm not joking - I need putting tips. As an aside, this video game is a ton of fun. I played on "tournament mode," which makes it play more like real golf...

I'm considering making the 4-hour trek to Miles of Golf, near Ann Arbor, MI, to help a few friends with club fitting. Is this place the mecca it appears to be? Any thoughts, recommendations, or experiences are welcome. Miles of Golf :: Home

Two questions: (1) What will be the final tally? (2) Will you be watching live in your respective time zone?

"Interestingly, most folks who have never seen me teach think I flatten everyone's wrist at the top, and have the golfer apply twistaway and limit the left arm flying wedge rotation on the backswing to help the golfer square up the club. A weaker golfer, or a bigger slicer, MAYBE. But this...

Many of you may have heard of the latest running shoe sensation -- the Vibram Five Fingers. The basic theory is that we have adapted to a running style, which may or may not do damage to our body, based on the invention of the running shoe 30 or 40 years ago. We have become more of a "power...

Fellow Forum Members: Brian has given us free access to the best golf information in the world. It would only be proper to invite Tiger into our community. I urge you to bombard the email boxes and phones (or whatever medium you can think of) in an attempt to break through the bubble...

Dear Tiger, I have been to hell in the golfing kingdom. Where attempts at clubface control are futile. Where push fades and snipe hooks reign supreme. Where even feline confidence is gashed. A state of utter helplessness and complete shock. Yeah, I spent a few years in golf's purgatory...

Finally was able to watch the Masters special about the 1977 tournament. Wow. Tom Watson's swing looks unbelievable. Granted, I was negative 6 years old at the time and have not seen many old school Watson swing sequences. I'm not sure that a swing sequence could do his pivot justice. Quite...

1. more effective, consistent control of low point ... we take 136 million paces/steps in our lifetime, give or take a few, so we have a pretty good feel for how long our leg is and where the ground sits in relation ... 2. prevents the backswing pivot from creeping too far off the ball ... 3...

It seems as though the prospects of bringing Trackman into a retail setting is pretty compelling, especially with the advent of this new "Combine" software package. The hurdles are abundant. No doubt about that. But the fact that there is presently an indoor golf chain that has been...

Glad to see the Olympic Committee has finally recognized what I learned at the age of 12: Baseball is boring. Golf is fun. Will be interesting to see the race that begins among developers/ organizations/ designers to build THE Olympic golf course down there in Rio. Thoughts?

Where should the ball be positioned in one's stance, with respect to alignment/true path and club selection, in order to produce a straight shot? And, most importantly, why? (Let's try to keep this thread under 10 pages.)

Seems as though Tiger has officially fallen in love with his sliding cut shot ... I don't think he even attempted to hit a single straight ball today. I predict that he'll hit a skank (half shank) shot or three this week with that backswing he's bringing ... He had plenty of misses to the right...

Congrats to Brian... Thanks for giving us a window into your thoughts for all these years. I must say, the train is picking up a serious head of steam.
